Which of These Statements Correctly Describes the Length-Tension Relationship of Skeletal

question 138

Multiple Choice

Which of these statements correctly describes the length-tension relationship of skeletal muscle?

• A)When a muscle is maximally stretched, it can develop the most tension upon contraction because the thin filaments can slide a maximal distance.
• B)Maximum tension can be developed if the muscle is at its shortest length at the onset of contraction.
• C) In the body, the relaxed length of a muscle occurs at its optimal length.
• D) When the initial length of a muscle prior to contraction becomes very short, tension is decreased during contraction.

Definitions:

Full-Fielding

A method used in electrical engineering to provide maximum voltage to a device's field winding to generate its highest possible output.

Electrical Load

A device or component that consumes electrical power, such as lights, motors, or electronic devices, within an electrical circuit.

Voltage Spikes

Sudden increases in electrical voltage within a circuit, which can potentially cause damage to electronic equipment.

Undercharging

The condition in which a battery or electronic device is not replenished with energy to its full capacity, often leading to decreased performance.
